Standing Figure (from Sketchbook VII)

William Trost Richards

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white pencil drawing on rectangular paper. A tree with a thick trunk and dense foliage dominates the right side. A smaller tree with sparse foliage stands beside it on the right. Horizontal lines suggest a field and a fence line in the background. The left two-thirds of the paper is mostly blank.
